부식산(腐植酸)-중금속(重金屬) 착화합물형성(錯化合物形成) 반응(反應)에 대한 Mechanism

Mechanisms of Humic Acid-Heavy Metal Complexation

토양유기물(土壤有機物)에 의한 중금속(重金屬)의 흡착(吸着)현상을 구명(究明)하기 위하여 이탄토(泥炭土)에서 humic acid를 분리정제(分離精製)하여, humid acid-metal complex 생성반응(生成反應)에 대한 mechanism을 조사(調査)하였다. 1. Humic acid-metal complex의 흡광도(吸光度)는 장파장영역(長波長領域)에서 단파장영역(短波長領域)으로 갈수록 Zn-HA > Cd-HA > Cu-HA의 순(順)으로 증가(增加)하였다. 2. Humic acid의 carboxyl group과 phenolic OH group들이 중금속(重金屬) ion들과 반응(反應)하여 complex를 생성(生成)하였으며 그 생성량(生成量)은 Cu > Zn ≧ Cd의 순(順)이었다. 3. Humic acid-medal complex의 안정도(安定度) 상수(常數)는 pH가 증가(增加)함에 따라 增加하였으며 1차(次) 안정도(安定度) 상수(常數)는 Zn>Cd>Cu 순(順)이었고, 2차(次) 안정도(安定度) 상수(常數)는 Cu>Zn>Cd의 순(順)이었으며, 總安定도 常數는 Cu>Zn>Cd의 순(順)이었다. 4. Humlc acid와 중금속(重金屬)ion들 상호(相互) 간(間)의 평균결합수(平均結合數)는 pH가 증가(增加)함에 따라 Cu>Zn>Cd의 順으고 增加하였다. 5. Humic acid에 의한 중금속(重金屬) ion들의 complex생성과정(生成課程)에서 barboxyl group만이 관여(關與)하는 것과 car-boxyl gruup 및 phenolic OH group이 동시(同時)에 관여(關與)하는 두가지 흡착(吸着)mechanlsm을 제안할 수 있었다.

Complexation experiment between humic acid and heavy metal cations was conducted to clear information on heavy metal adsorption by soil organic constituent. The absorbance of UV-visible light of humic acid-metal complexes increased with increasing wavelength, and the order of their absorbance was in the order of Zn->Cd->Cu- saturated humic acid. Carboxyl and phenolic OH groups participated in the complex formation between heavy metal cations and functional groups of humic acid, and the amounts complex was in the order of $Cu^{+{+}}$ > $Zn^{+{+}}$ $\geq$ $Cd^{+{+}}$. The stability constants of humic acid-metal complexes increased with increasing pH, and the order of first stability constants was $Zn^{+{+}}$ > $Cd^{+{+}}$ > $Cu^{+{+}}$, and those of second and overall stability constants were $Cu^{+{+}}$ > $Zn^{+{+}}$ > $Cd^{+{+}}$. With increasing pH, the average binding numbers betwen heavy metal cations and functional groups of humic acid increased the order of $Cu^{+{+}}$ > $Zn^{+{+}}$ > $Cd^{+{+}}$. It was postulated that two types of complexations between heavy metal cations and functional groups of humic acid. One was the reactions in which only carboxyl groups participated to form complexes, and the other was those in which both carboxyl and phenolic OH groups simultaneously participated.
